Non immigrant visa status allows the holder of the status to enter or remain in the U.S. for a particular specialized temporary purpose. The types include visitors for pleasure and business, students, professional workers, intracompany transferees, religious workers, artists and entertainers, individuals with extraordinary ability, investors or traders, exchange visitors, fiancés, Free Trade professionals, and others. The status is obtained either by making application at the U.S. Consulate in the foreign country for permission to enter the U.S. or, by requesting an extension or change of status from inside the U.S.

Most nonimmigrant visas allow their holder multiple entry to the U.S., meaning one can go in and out of the U.S. as one needs until the visa expires. The method of application and the type of visa issued is dependent upon the needs of the individual and the visa that meets those needs.

Our trained staff is well qualified to work with you, your family members or your employer to determine the best visa category to meet your needs. Please note that a visa is not a guarantee of entry into the U.S. An immigration officer at the port of entry determines whether or not you may enter and your authorized duration of stay.
